Martin Lewis’ popular ‘consumer revenge’ webiste MoneySavingExpert.com is inviting
users and visitors to vote for the site’s new charity partners. Those selected could
receive up to £20,000 as a result.

The last vote took place in September 2006 and the following five charities were
selected (each has so far received £20,500): Re-cycle, Cancer Research UK, Tools
for Self Reliance, Different Strokes, and Usable Websites.

This year 600 nominations were received, and these have been narrowed down to 12,
four of whom will join Re-cycle as the site’s beneficiary charities. The vote closes
at 1pm on 22 July 2008.
